Cubs' Clevenger handed one-game suspension

PITTSBURGH -- Cubs catcher Steve Clevenger was suspended one game and fined an undisclosed amount for what Major League Baseball described as his "aggressive actions and fighting" during the bench-clearing incident in the bottom of the sixth inning Thursday against the Nationals.

Joe Garagiola, Jr., senior vice president of standards and on-field operations for Major League Baseball, made the announcement on Saturday.

Clevenger did not appeal the decision, and served the suspension Saturday, missing the Cubs' game against the Pirates.
